When it comes to China's township civilization, I think the south is far richer than the north. I have been to several famous ancient towns, including Xidi and Hongcun in Anhui, Huangyao in Guangxi, Linpu and Xiamei in Fujian. The most impressive buildings in these ancient towns are the ancestral halls. Wandering in these ancestral halls, the deepest experience is the strong family concept of the Chinese. For the Chinese, there used to be one of the most cruel punishments, which was announced by the patriarch: after the death of the **, you may not enter the ancestral hall of the ** clan. If so, it means that after death, he will be a ghost.
Whenever people talk about various criminal cases in China, there is always an illusory statement: Chinese people have no religious belief, lack fear, and do not know how to repent after committing a crime. After hearing a lot, I basically agree with this kind of statement, but why do Chinese people lack fear? I think this has a lot to do with the breakdown of Chinese township civilization. Along with the collapse of the township civilization, the Chinese people's clan concept followed. The "state" that we often talk about is understood by ordinary people as "the state comes first and then the family". I always feel that this understanding is too superficial. I think in the hearts of the ancients, the state and the family are one, and the state is for the monarch. Identification, and home is identification with clan. In the long feudal society, relative stability can only be maintained if the identity of the country and the family is consistent. Once the identity of the country and the family is contradictory, there will always be chaos. It is precisely because of this sense of identification with "home" that for a long time, the Chinese people's goal is to honor their ancestors and be worthy of their ancestors after death. Of course, when committing a crime, the fear of family law will always make those unworthy descendants think again and again.
These are my first thoughts after watching Escort Chance. However, in addition to these, what impresses me most is that Americans are so handy when it comes to making theme films. I am not disrespectful to the deceased and the protagonist in the film at all, but I am disgusted with the intentions of the investors, producers, directors, etc. There is a trick in the political struggle in China called: use the dead to suppress the living, which can be applied to this movie. Americans make troubles all over the world for the benefit of their own country. For the benefit of a small group of people, American soldiers will always sacrifice something. Of course, we will respect the deceased. The portrayal of ordinary Americans in the escort process in the film is really nothing brilliant. I think in any country in the world, their soldiers will receive this honor after their sacrifice. What I despise the most is to make it into a movie and release it in the world. It seems that there was a documentary before that. It seems to have no political intentions, but it is actually exporting American values to the world and deceiving other countries without the ability to judge. The people, their intentions are not poisonous, and hope that their compatriots can make their own judgments.
Finally, there is one more thought. Since Vietnam's self-defense counterattack, the Chinese army has not fought in actual combat for more than 20 years. What is the combat strength has made all countries and their own people questioned. This point should be learned from the United States, avoiding major wars and constantly fighting small battles. One is to train the army, The second is to inspire people's patriotism.
